My education is complete...and you're sweet!

second post for today...scroll down for the Color Throwdown and AI blog hop!

Well, my education was complete a long time ago (LOL), but...Leonard the pig wanted to share with you that graduation time is quickly approaching...he's sporting a new mortar board for the occasion and announcing just how smart he is!!! This is also for today's sketch challenge over on SCS!

I thought it would be fitting to make the sentiment look like it was written on a blackboard, so I stamped it in white craft on black and just heated it to dry...no embossing powder. Leonard is doing his dance of joy because he is graduating and therefore he needed a graduation cap/mortar board! The silhouette grad cap was shrunk from it's actual size to fit on Leonards head by stamping it on shrink plastic! Yup, it's a shrinky dink!! I adhered it above his head with a pop dot. The two horizontal panels were stamped with the graduation background.

Some gingham ribbon finished things off!

And now for the "you're sweet" part of the title. This was such a great sketch that I had to make another card!!!
